Data Visualization with Excel

Live Webinar

There is a saying, “a picture is worth a thousand words”. In Excel, that means finding ways to represent numerical data pictorially so that your audience can quickly and easily understand it. It's often easier to look at a chart or graph that interprets trends in a set of data, than to just look at a set of figures.

In this session with expert Mike Thomas, you’ll learn how to create and enhance the appearance of traditional charts such as pie charts and bar charts in Excel. You’ll also learn how to use Excel to create Sparkline charts (really useful in dashboards), infographic-style charts and how to represent data graphically without using the charting feature at all.
